詩篇 16
1 【上主是我的產業】天主，求您保祐我，因為我只投靠您。
The inscription of a title: of David himself. Preserve me, O Lord, because I have hoped in you.
2 我對天主說：唯有您是我的上主，唯有您是我的幸福。
I have said to the Lord: “You are my God, so you have no need of my goodness.”
3 對地上所有的聖族，我的心是如何地傾慕！
As for the saints, who are in his land: he has made all my desires wonderful in them.
4 歸依其他神的人，他們的苦楚必然累增；我決不向他們行奠血之祭，他們的名號，我口決不提起。
Their infirmities have been multiplied; after this, they acted more quickly. I will not gather for their convocations of blood, nor will I remember their names with my lips.
5 上主，您是我的產業，您是我的杯爵；我得到您的基業，有您為我守著。
The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and my cup. It is you who will restore my inheritance to me.
6 您恩賜給我在優雅的地區，我的產業實在令我滿心歡喜。
The lots have fallen upon me with clarity. And, indeed, my inheritance has been very clear to me.
7 我要稱頌引導我的上主，我的心連夜間也向我督促。
I will bless the Lord, who has bestowed understanding upon me. Moreover, my temperament has also corrected me, even through the night.
8 我常將上主置於我的眼前，我決不動搖，因上主在我身邊。
I have made provision for the Lord always in my sight. For he is at my right hand, so that I may not be disturbed.
9 因此我心高興，我靈喜歡，連我的肉軀也無憂安眠。
Because of this, my heart has been joyful, and my tongue has exulted. Moreover, even my body will rest in hope.
For you will not abandon my soul to Hell, nor will you allow your holy one to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 請將您生命的道路指示給我，唯有在您面前才有圓滿的喜悅，永遠在您身邊才是我的福樂。
You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy by your countenance. At your right hand are delights, even to the end.
